Ayubhowan!

I’m Sala.

An artist whose canvas is the body.
A yogi whose practice is life.
Presence is my medicine.

I create spaces for practice, ritual and self-inquiry, inviting us back into sacred relationship with ourselves, each other and the living Earth.

Not separate from creation.
Part of its becoming.

Welcome to Salasbananas.

Explore the ecosystem

Salasbananas is the living ecosystem through which my work moves.

Rooted in care, consent and belonging, it unfolds through four doorways: Practices, Journeys, Gatherings and Guidance.

This work takes place at the Queer Temple in Sri Lanka, in spaces beyond it, and online.

Salasbananas is a participatory ecosystem, an invitation to arrive with all of who you are, to take up space, to meet yourself and others more deeply, and to create from there.

Pause. Take a breath.

Enter through whichever doorway feels alive.
